Sizzlin' Santa Strip Run

Get a jump on your Christmas sewing! Join us for the second annual Sizzlin' Santa Strip Run, scheduled for Thursday, Friday & Saturday, July 18, 19 & 20 from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. each day. Visit the four participating shops - Colby Sew 'n Vac and the Quilt Cabin in Colby; Smoky River Quilt Shoppe in Oakley; and Prairie Flower Quilt Co. in Leoti - where you can purchase a strip packet of 5 red and 5 green 2 1/2" strips for $10 each. When you've completed the shop hop you'll have a Christmas jelly roll to make one of the four featured projects. Purchase as many strip packets as you'd like to make 1, 2, 3 or all 4 projects! Have your passport stamped at each shop and turn it in at your last stop to receive an appreciation gift and be entered in the drawing for one of four $50 gift baskets. There will be in-store specials, refreshments and, of course, lots of quilting fun!
 
Our project features the newest Kansas Troubles pattern called "Icicle Stars". This 70" x 70" quilt would be perfect as a tablecloth at your holiday feast, or would 'deck the halls' as a wall hanging in your home. And using Lynne Hagmeier's raw-edge applique technique makes this quilt a quick and easy one to make! We're taking pre-orders on finishing kits, so reserve yours today!

Looking for a sizzlin' hot good time?

Whew! Where has the time gone? Now that it's June and summer is officially here, we here at Prairie Flower Quilt Co. are turning our attention to Christmas in July and the Sizzlin' Santa Strip Run! Our fabrics are selected, our sample is in progress and we're making plans for some shop revamping. You won't want to miss it, so mark your calendars for July 18, 19 & 20!
The Sizzlin' Santa Strip Run is a shop hop featuring four quilt shops in Leoti, Colby & Oakley. At each shop you can purchase a strip pack of 5 red & 5 green 2 1/2" strips for $10. Each shop will showcase their Sizzlin' Santa Strip Run project featuring all 40 strips from the shops and have finishing kits available for purchase to make their project. Buy enough strip packs to make one or all of the projects. Have your passport stamped at each shop and then turn it in for a chance to win one of four $50 gift baskets. Each person who turns in their completed passport will receive a gift. It's just a sizzlin' hot  good time, so you won't want to miss it!
